1. Prepare the Lamb Chops
Pat the lamb chops dry with paper towels. This is important—it helps get that crispy crust later.
Season both sides generously with:
- Salt
- Black pepper
- Paprika
- Garlic powder
- Onion powder
- Oregano
- Thyme
Let them sit for 10–15 minutes so the flavors absorb.
2. Make the Parmesan Coating
In a bowl, mix:
- Grated Parmesan
- Flour
- Minced garlic
This mixture will create a crispy, cheesy crust.
3. Coat the Lamb
Lightly drizzle the lamb chops with olive oil, then press each chop into the Parmesan mixture.
Make sure both sides are evenly coated.
4. Heat the Pan
Place a large skillet over medium-high heat.
Add:
- Olive oil
- Butter
Let it heat until hot but not smoking.
5. Fry the Lamb Chops
Place lamb chops in the pan (don’t overcrowd).
Cook:
- 3–4 minutes per side for medium
- Adjust depending on thickness and preferred doneness
You’re looking for a golden, crispy crust.
6. Add Garlic Butter Flavor
In the last minute of cooking:
- Add a little extra minced garlic and butter
- Spoon the melted garlic butter over the chops
This step adds incredible richness.
7. Rest & Serve
Remove from heat and let the chops rest for 5 minutes.
Sprinkle with fresh parsley and a little extra Parmesan if you like.
